Grsecurity is a well-known set of patches for the Linux kernel, which greatly enhance the ability of the system to withstand various security threats. As you can imagine, there are many companies that want to use Grsecurity, and they need to follow the accompanying GPL license. They are not doing that, and now Grsecurity needs to take some drastic action.
The Grsecurity patches cover certain versions of the Linux kernel, and they are available for download. This means that anyone - and that includes companies - can take these patches and incorporate them in the Linux kernel. They do so by following the GPL license, and they have to make available any modifications they bring.
